The industrial age made possible by fossil fuels will surely decline as these fuels run out. In The Ecotechnic Future John Michael Greer alerts the listener to possible changes future generations may face as these dwindling fuel supplies lead first to a deindustrial age, then to a society which salvages the remnants of our current plenty, and eventually to a time in which people may learn to live in balance with the environment: an ecotechnic society.

" Found the book overly pesimistic, and the solutions maybe to close the authors heart. "
" kinda scary "
" A compelling subject and some very interesting ideas, but something about the writing just didn't draw me in. Has a seriously lengthy bibliography. Can see myself referring to the ideas here some day. "
" There are a lot of interesting bits in here, but by the end, I still didn't feel like I really understood what the ecotechnic future is...I don't think Greer really supported his initial concept. "

" Best book I've read on the subject since Sharon Astyk. "Work" chapter was especially useful. "
" Great logical and factual explanation of the state of affairs currently, the not so cozy future and the steps that can be taken to 'cushion' the fall. "
